Five rescue kittens had the time of their lives Monday at an aquarium in Atlanta, Georgia, that remains closed to the public due to coronavirus concerns.
The kittens, who live at the Atlanta Humane Society, were invited to go see the fish at the Georgia Aquarium, according to Fox 31.
Monday morning, the aquarium posted a video of Nemo, Guppy, Marlin, Bubbles, and Dory as they romped and played in front of a huge tank where a diver was feeding the brightly colored fish.
